I have attached the example. Hope to help.

Application

@SpringBootApplication
public class Application {

    public static void main(String... args) {
        SpringApplication.run(Application.class);
    }

}

PropertiesController

@RestController
public class PropertiesController {

    @Autowired
    private UIProperty uiProperty;

    @RequestMapping("properties")
    public UIProperty getProperties() {
        return uiProperty;
    }

}

UIProperty

@Component
@ConfigurationProperties(prefix = "ui.label")
public class UIProperty {

    private String user;
    private String password;

    public void setUser(String user) {
        this.user = user;
    }

    public String getUser() {
        return user;
    }

    public void setPassword(String password) {
        this.password = password;
    }

    public String getPassword() {
        return password;
    }
}

application.properties

ui.label.user=user
ui.label.password=password

database.user=
database.password=

I'd create a RestController to expose ConfigurationProperties. But be sure to properly secure it as well as limit in its scope not to disclose confidential data like db access credentials.
